Keen to hear from ex-CR&S Apprentices on their qualification journey? Want to expand your apprentice network?

We will hear from a small panel of newly qualified CR&S Apprentices so they can share their experiences and practical tips for you to take away to your studies. There will also be time for networking so you can expand your apprentice network and connect with others in the same position as you.
The event will take place at Weil’s London office as well as online. Please see the running order below (times in BST):
- 9.15-9.30: Arrivals including teas/coffees/snacks (for in-person attendees)

This will be a relaxed and informal setting for apprentices to share knowledge, challenges and practical tips and we’re keen to have as many our members join us - whether that is in-person or online – we hope to see you there!
If you intend on attending both this event and the ICRS Exchange, you are welcome to join us in-person and we will travel to the Exchange as a group.
